Just an FYI for anyone doing the liquid diet or getting ready to start with it.... I went to costco last night and got three of the 18 packs of the premier Protein shakes. They were on sale for 18.99, which equals roughly $1.05 a shake! They are pretty tasty and i like not having to mix the powder up. My nutritionist approved them because they are five carbs or less (theyre exactly five carbs) and 160 calories a shake. Just thought Id share in case anyone else wanted to try them out...the coupon ends on 8/28, they are normally 24.99 a pack at costco and about $7.50 for a 4 pack at Walmart.

Hi everyone! My surgery is set for September 7th. I will have to do a three week modified pre op diet due to having a milk allergy.

I understand I would feel that way too if it was September 1st. You will be fine. You have more than enough time to get over your nervousness. Where are you having your surgery at and what kind are you having?

I hope so... Pretty nervous, but am hoping for the best. Right now I am just trying to learn as much as I can.

You're not missing out on anything milk based. I don't know if I am lucky or maybe it's a bad thing. My surgeon only required a 3 day pre op diet. I guess that's why so many patients lose weight prior to surgery.

Hello Everyone, I guess I will be joining your group, My surgery was suppose to be in 4 days but it has been postponed. My surgeon wants me to be off my Ibuprofen for a month before surgery. What I don't get is why didn't he tell me this when I was in his office a month ago. Why wait till 4 days before surgery to tell me this. I'm really bummed. :(

Yeeesss me! I got approved for surgery so quick took like a month because I had several doctor records trying to lose weight since middle school and all failed so now I'm 25 and scared as crap bc my support group is small as well as my support team but I know that it's within myself where my support really relies on. But my surgery is September 20th 2016, yaaaay let's get it!!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
